Here's my new tank !

A South American community tank at the KLCC Aquarium, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This is my raw footage, straight out of the camera, so apologies for the odd 'dark corner' shot.

Includes some red-tails for Clunk, and some other monstrosities I haven't id'd as yet, and a nice shoal over toward the rear. Little kids added for scale.

Or a normal yobbo, who has just won the lottery.

I wouldn't mind working in one of those joints. Probably shitty pay though, unless you have your cert in whatever biology.

Be the bloke who has to SCUBA to the bottom of the Shark tank, with the Gravel Vac !

I just took a look at Annes Zoo link (I missed it first time through). As soon as I land on the page, I see "Omaha", then the Quoll. "Hey - that's one of ours !" He's a long way from home.

I wonder how often the phrase "What's New at the Zoo?", appears around the world ? Our local Zoo has it, on their flyers.

But back to topic, sort of. I'm not sure I mentioned this, but when I was searching the KLCC souvenir shop, for a decent fridge magnet, I came across one that said, "KLCC Aquarium", just above a picture of a Cat ! The four legs, fur, and tail variety...
